    C'mon @mucko.......now your here you might as well share

    Tell ya what ill share one to break the ice,

    Earlier in the year when I first got my truck and was that excited to get out to my spot that I grabbed the first bolt out of the box without even looking at it. Getting all my gear out at the carpark, pull the bolt out and oh f**k.....the P14 bolt aint gunna fit up the rem700's arse

    If you had put it back in after cleaning you wouldn't have this problem.

    I store my bolt actions with bolt out, mainly in case of theft. Bolts live in the amo safe

    But the guns are much less use to the thief, which is more the point. No point making it too easy for them.

    It seemed a bit crazey to me to remove the bolt from my bolt action and place it in the safe next to the semi,lever and pump actions.
    If your really concerned about theft you would be better off to store all firearms in different locations.

    Cleaning??? I store them separately too.

    Insulation tape for the barrel and for fixing everything else is an essential.

    One I've learned

    Once you pick ya campsite, look where you are going to pitch your tent and where your sleeping mat is going to be.
    Nowadays I get on my knees and run my hands over the area feeling for short stalks and sharp rocks

    Waking up on a sleep mat that has deflated is not much fun

    One of those trad blue mats don't feel too good either when what you thought was good ground actually a lot of bumpy submerged rocks...
